Drain Rock

Keeps water moving so clay can't trap it.

Clean, washed stone graded for drainage. Water flows straight through it, so it's the go-to behind retaining walls, around foundations, and in dry wells — exactly where North Texas's heavy Blackland clay would otherwise trap water against the structure.

They were a big help. I needed gravel, but I really did not compute the requirements very well. They were able to help me and get me exactly what I needed not only that, but it was a great price. If I need more, I know where to go.

Frequently Asked Questions

Drain Rock is general-purpose washed stone for retaining walls, foundation drainage, and dry wells. French Drain Rock is sized specifically for pipe-bedded French drains. Both move water; French Drain Rock is the pick when a perforated pipe is involved.
North Texas's Blackland clay holds water and swells, which pushes against foundations and walls. Open-graded drain rock gives that water a path to move away instead of building up.
